( 2a + 3 ) - ( 4a - 8 ) = 7
2a + 3 - 4a + 8 = 7
-2a + 11 = 7
-2a = -4
a = -4 / -2
a = 2
Answer:
a) Kylie has 8 marbles
b) 7 Cylinders
c) 17 carrots
d) 8 marbles belong to Shauntay
Step-by-step explanation:
5. Identify the type and subtype of each of the fol-
lowing problems.
a. Shawn has 15 marbles, which is 7 more marbles than Kyle has. How many marbles does Kyle have?
Shawn = 15 marbles
S = K + 7
15 = K + 7
K = 15 - 7
K = 8 marbles
Kylie has 8 marbles
b. Tiffany has 12 blocks, 5 of which are cubes and the rest cylinders. How many blocks are cylinders?
T = 12 blocks
Cubes = 5
Cylinders = the rest
12 blocks = Cubes + Cylinders
Cylinders = 12 - Cubes
Cylinders = 12 - 5
Cylinder = 7
c. Peter had some carrots. After he ate 3 of them, he had 14 carrots left. How many carrots did Peter have before?
Number of carrots Peter has before
= Number of carrots he ate + Number of carrots he has now
= 14 + 3
= 17 carrots
d. In a bag of 17 marbles, 9 marbles belong to Kelly and the rest belong to Shauntay. How many marbles belong to Shauntay?
Total number of Marbles = 17
Kelly = 9 marbles
Shauntay = ?
Total = Kelly + Shauntay
Shauntay = Total - Kelly's marbles
= ( 17 - 9) marbles
= 8 marbles
8 marbles belong to Shauntay
You proofread 2 pages per minute so you divide 96 by 2 to get 48 minutes which is the answer
Hi! actually, the y intercept is 0, 8. hopefully this helps
x = 85 degrees and
y = 45 degrees.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
The angle for a straight line is 180°. The sum of the angles in a triangle is 180°. These two statements are required to solve this problem.
The angles of x° and 95° are on a single straight line.
So 

So the angle of x is 85°.
Step 2:
The sum of the angles in a triangle is 180°.
So 


So the angle of y is 45°.
